## What it does

The server exposes two tools. `fetch_feed_entries` reads entries from an RSS URL and returns feed details alongside titles, links, publication dates, and summaries; `fetch_article_content` turns a linked article into Markdown with its title and source URL. A feed request can include a limit on the number of entries.

It can communicate through `stdio` or `httpStream`. The HTTP mode uses `TRANSPORT`, `PORT`, and `MCP_SERVER_HOST` for configuration. For a container deployment, the host must be set to `0.0.0.0` and the port mapped for external access; without that mapping, clients outside the container cannot reach the HTTP service.
